    Health Care Reform...Sound off here, An ET Roundtable.

    No it will have a negative effect on the economy. Public sector jobs are financed by taxes, they are a drain on the economy. Obviously tax cuts without spending cuts will increase the deficit. As for the CBO estimate, maybe doubt was not the right word, let me re-phrase. I think the CBO...

    Health Care Reform...Sound off here, An ET Roundtable.

    In the case of this bill the CBO claims it to be budget neutral, how can that be? They are incorporating a NEW cost into the budget, unless it is 100% funded from cuts within the existing budget, it increases. It is that simple. Now you are going to tell me that the cost is covered by raising...

    Ok .......... Here is the more important issue. From Article I section 9- Limits on Congress: "No Bill of Attainder or ex post facto Law shall be passed." Attainder attainder n. The loss of all civil rights by a person sentenced for a serious crime. [< OFr. attaindre, to convict]...

    Are you going to address the other issue or be a coward?

    It looks like it is stated as a fact to me. Your interpretation that it means we are all to foot the bill for the uninsured sounds like an opinion. This site was also up long before this debate began, and I read this exact def like 2 years ago and it is the same today. What about the...

    Why play games? We both know what the rest of the definition says. Now try reading it over with your eyes open.

    Click the link for welfare, it did not mean what it does today when this document was written. It is also not the only Constitutional issue. There is no way whatsoever to interpret any power of Congress as being able to FORCE anyone onto a federal program through the consequences of fines...

    I certainly agree. However, about half of our population either doesn't agree or doesn't understand.

    Lol I agree, but apparently this isn't going to happen this time. Let's just hope they have the balls to do what is necessary after the fact, though I'm not sure how it ends up in front of the Supreme Court. One thing is certain though: if it does pass into law, it will NEVER get repealed, no...

    I guess that you couldn't comprehend my example of you doing this then, so you clearly cannot make the distinction yourself. Just saying something is stupid doesn't make it so douchebag.

    Really? So you read through those sections and decided that it is within the ability of Congress to force anyone onto their plan?

    IF it passes in its present form, it should end up in Supreme Court. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=192577&perpage=6&pagenumber=7 http://www.usconstitution.net/const.html

    No you talk down to everyone that disagrees with you. You are one of the most uncivil people on the board, if you don't agree, you ATTEMPT to make jokes and act intellectually superior, but rarely offer anything of substance. Since you were referring to healthcare in this thread we'll use it as...

    You ARE the arrogant fool... seriously. You talk down to everyone that disagrees with you, and I've NEVER seen you admit wrong. Also, Lucrum's point is that while you are entitled to your opinion, who the fuck are you to insult Americans whose lives are actually effected by US domestic...

    Average daily profit with $50K account?

    I don't recall anyone saying compounding makes them mad, but ok. Anyway growing your account is part of the business, the more u make the better your ability to survive bad times. At some point though you will likely run into liquidity issues. Also consider that if u trade for a living then...

    Average daily profit with $50K account?

    I am pretty sure that I never said I was a GOOD trader. I know and have been mentored by a few good traders, and I did say I made money my first year, and I was doing pretty well (relative to my acct) in '09, but it all went to shit. It got to the point were I didn't have enough in my account...

    Average daily profit with $50K account?

    That's YOUR system and the risk YOU are willing to take. And hell no I wouldn't trade a system that I estimated could dd 80% maybe u should cut your size kamikaze. :D Your system certainly seems much more risky than trying to make 500/day on a 50k acct, so it is kinda funny that u don't...

    I haven't day traded in like 3 months, what does that have to do with the topic? Or do u just want to measure e-peens? Do u think that your screenshot somehow makes your misinformed opinion worth more than mine? Also what stupidity asshole... if you refuse to believe what I KNOW, like I...

    Average daily profit with $50K account?

    Rat, in this thread's OP is the question: can u avg $500/day on a 50k acct. The answer is YES. You can use all of the ratios and standards of measure that u would like, but it doesn't change the fact that it is possible/realistic. You are ignoring people saying that comparing a $Bil HF's %...
